This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
She can't stop pacing, she never felt so alive
Her thoughts are racing, set on overdrive
It takes a village, this she knows is true
They're expecting her and she's got work to do
He helplessly stands by
It's meaningless to try
As he rubs his red-rimmed eyes
He says, I've never seen her get this bad
Even though she seems so high
He knows that she can't fly
And when she falls out of the sky
He'll be standing by
She was raised in a small Midwestern town
By a charming and eccentric loving father
She was praised as the perfect teenage girl
And everyone thought highly of her
And she tried everyday
With endless drive to make the grade
Then one day she woke up to find
The perfect girl had lost her mind
Once barely taking a break, now she sleeps the days away
She helplessly stands by, it's meaningless to try
And all she wants to do is cry
No one ever knew she was so sad
'Cause even though she gets so high
And thinks that she can fly, she will fall out of the sky
But in the face of misery, she found hopefulness
Feeling better, she had weathered this depression
Much to her advantage
She resumed her frantic pace
Boundless power, midnight hour
She enjoyed the race
Her thoughts are racing, set on overdrive
It takes a village, this she knows is true
They're expecting her and she's got work to do
He helplessly stands by
It's meaningless to try
As he rubs his red-rimmed eyes
He says, I've never seen her get this bad
Even though she seems so high
He knows that she can't fly
And when she falls out of the sky
He'll be standing by
She was raised in a small Midwestern town
By a charming and eccentric loving father
She was praised as the perfect teenage girl
And everyone thought highly of her
And she tried everyday
With endless drive to make the grade
Then one day she woke up to find
The perfect girl had lost her mind
Once barely taking a break, now she sleeps the days away
She helplessly stands by, it's meaningless to try
And all she wants to do is cry
No one ever knew she was so sad
'Cause even though she gets so high
And thinks that she can fly, she will fall out of the sky
But in the face of misery, she found hopefulness
Feeling better, she had weathered this depression
Much to her advantage
She resumed her frantic pace
Boundless power, midnight hour
She enjoyed the race

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Blue

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence is actually one 42 minute song and it describes 6 different mental ilnesses. This section happens to be about Manic-depression, where a person can be hyperactive and flying high one day and "crash" into severe depression the next.
It's about manic-depressive disorder. Pretty much describes itself.
Hey, is it just me, or can anyone else hear a phone ring at 1:12?
i think it just a effect on rudess keyboard
I love this song so much...I know it sounds selfish, but it describes who I am to a T. It's about a girl who everyone praised as being perfect, and she believed it, but couldn't hold up the image, and she's losing her mind because of it...and becoming so depressed at times because she doesn't feel like she can hold up that mask, yet she doesn't want to let everyone down because she's 'PERFECT'. And then there are those times when she feels so happy that everyone's pleased with her, that she's doing what they tell her is the right things, that they still think she's perfect, she feels like she can fly...but she'll just end up crashing and burning. And then HE's there to catch her...^_^.
I know what you mean...cause I feel this way too. Sad thing is, tryin to please everyone is one hard habit to break...
I took a quiz and this song is actually "my theme song" or what not...ironic
Great Song(s)
According to Mike Portnoy The Six Degrees Inner turbulence songs is about Mental Illness.
The beginning piano part resembles Biaxident (LTE), doesn't it?
Hmm not really, Biaxident reminds me of Final Fantasy 7 Aerith theme, but yeah, but this song doesn't describe you people to a T, it's pretty close for a lot of people, but it is about manic depression, or bi-polar syndrome, which causes quick changes of chemicals in the brain changing mood. The father is the one who has to watch this girl go through all this, and he sits back and feels he can't help. She then of course as the lyrics state, comes back out of depression, then back in, much like people with bi-polar syndrome.
It's about a girl who has bipolar disorder.
I don't think it's a phone ring. I can definately hear something. Maybe a really distorted scream, or the breakes of a car.
